“Through my work, I have worked alongside a number of fine police officers and leaders that truly have a heart for our community and are doing everything in their power to bring about that positive change,” said Jami Anders-Kemp, director of Omaha 360. “It’s not that our officers are seeking great accolades, but I can tell you, they don’t mind receiving an occasional thank you.”

The #SupportBlue campaign provides ways for the public to show its appreciation to Omaha’s police officers by posting “thank you” notes on SupportBlueOmaha.com and using the #SupportBlue hashtag for social media posts.

Millard elementary school students touring the Omaha Police mounted patrol barn were able to meet the Mayor and witness the launch of the #SupportBlue campaign.
